noun trɪˈmɛndəsnəstrəˈmɛndəsnəs

Origin

Mid 17th century: from Latin tremendus (gerundive of tremere 'tremble') + -ous.

Tremendous goes back to Latin tremere ‘to tremble’, and had the original sense of something that makes you tremble (Middle English). Trepidation (Late Middle English) and intrepid (late 17th century) are from the related trepidare ‘tremble’.

Rhymes

horrendous, stupendous
